Everything You Need To Know About Auburn Fan Day 2019
The annual Auburn Fan Day will take place on Saturday, August 10 from 3:30-5:30 p.m. CT behind the Auburn Athletics Complex in the Indoor Practice Facility and Watson Field House.
This annual preseason event gives Tiger fans a unique opportunity to interact with their favorite players and coaches. Access to the practice facility area will open at approximately 3:30 p.m. to allow fans to begin getting in line for autographs. The autograph session will end promptly at 5:30 p.m.
Entrance to the practice facility area will be from the Beard-Eaves-Memorial Coliseum parking lot on the north side of the facility. Fans are encouraged to park in the lots north of the practice facility.
Fans may enter the practice facility area at 3:30 p.m. There will be no access to the facility area from Donahue Drive. Fans are encouraged to park north of the complex (coliseum, arena and stadium deck).
The 2019 Auburn Football team will be located in the Indoor Practice Facility. The Auburn volleyball, equestrian and soccer teams will also be located in the Indoor Practice Facility.
Coach Malzahn will be located on the bottom floor of the Auburn Athletic Complex, while Aubie, Cheerleaders, the Tiger Paws will be located in the Watson Fieldhouse.
In order to serve as many fans as possible, each fan may only bring ONE item to be signed. Autograph items are not restricted as long as they can be transported by one person without holding up the line and do not pose a safety hazard or impede the line. AU Athletics Department staff reserve the right to deny an item if it poses a problem.
In addition to receiving the 2019 posters for football, equestrian, volleyball, soccer, cheerleaders and Tiger Paws, fans will also have the opportunity to purchase the 2019 Auburn Football media guide and live sports radios for the upcoming season. Fans can also avoid the lines on game day by bringing in their live sports radio to be re-programmed.

7. A new bar, the Southeastern, opens in downtown Auburn:
Brought to us by the same people who own Quixotes, the Southeastern will embody "the feel of Southeastern football, the Southern charm, the Southern vibe" and markets itself to young professionals. The venue will feature two levels: the upstairs reserved for young professionals ages 21 and over, while the downstairs will maintain that college party atmosphere we've grown to love at Quixotes.
8. 1st Avenue:
Don’t forget to check out the new development on 1st Avenue in downtown Opelika. 1st Avenue is home to Griff Goods (a sustainable men’s clothing store), Mama Mocha’s (the second location in Auburn-Opelika featuring a larger space and fabulous food menu), 10,000 Hz (a funky new record store), and Sneak & Dawdle (a snazzy new speakeasy from the same people who own The Hound and The Depot in Auburn).

Magnolia James is an upscale, professional women’s boutique bringing more shopping options to Auburn. Located on East Samford Avenue, Magnolia James features staple items like blouses, skirts, and dress pants, as well as small gifts like jewelry and candles. Think business casual, but with a designer twist.
